Sharpton recieves massive amounts of death threats in response to Imus

Perhaps your question is best directed towards those who find it acceptable.

Perhaps you can explain the hypocrisy, being that you are Black and a Woman.  Perhaps it was not a big deal.  Perhaps Jackson and Sharpton need to get a real life/job.

Perhaps this might help to soothe your jangled nerves.

and we were going along so nicely........

Perhaps you can act your age not your IQ.  Perhaps you can actually stand by your argument or admit you are arguing a point you cannot win.

some people, no matter how bad they are losing an argument, would never admit defeat. If that was the case the truce thread on G&O would have been long gone. We are all guilty of this at some point. I would however like an answer to why Sharpton/Jackson don't go after rappers/hiphop the way they do whites.

Suppose you tell me what point it is you think I am arguing?
You are why children are not allowed to run with scissors.

So why not ask Sharpton or Jackson. Why are you bothering me with such a question? See reply #99

You love getting personal with me over everyone else except maybe MM.  WHy is that?  You say that this is a big deal in terms of race and gender when MANY more people say racist/sexist stuff yet you attack a white man saying stuff black men say everyday.

You are, I assume, black and a woman, so I was only looking for your opinion or some insight as to what you thought the reasons were, Sorry to offend you by asking, should have known you'd be offended by a white guy asking questions of a black woman.

Show me where I have attacked Imus.

That was probably one of the most pathetic attempts to play the race card that I have ever seen.
Maybe you should study Sharpton & Jackson a little closer. You might learn a few things.

Even saying he should have been suspended (which you did) and not calling out rappers shows some hypocrisy IMO.  I'm not going to do a song and dance with you because you and I don't ever agree.  I'll leave it at that because I'm not gonna get heated and get personal like the past.

Even Imus agreed with his own suspension. I voice my displeasure with an entertainers work by not buying his CDs.
If you have a problem with Imus being fired, again, ...I suggest you take it up with his employers.

I doubt anyone agrees with their own suspensions. I think Voicing concerns makes a statement.

I guess you missed that portion of the interview then. but yes, I mus agreed his suspension was justified.

hmmm...I wouldn't agree with it and in order to save face, people say they do.  Simple face-saving behaviors.  Read a COM book if you don't believe me.  I know you like to think I am dumb but I am well read on many things.

HAHAHA trying to understand a different races way of thinking/justifying is now playing the race card?

suppose you don't get sarcasm, huh? kinda like the pacifier. As far as learning anything from those two. The only thing I take away from them is that I should try to bury my race in the past and attack other races at any opportunity and at all costs.

Thanks for the insight into the black community, now I know why......

I don't think you're dumb, ...I think you're an inexperienced child, ...and an annoying one at that.

3, 2, 1... MUTE!

So you are saying if you had a daughter that played sports and you heard imus call her and her teammates "hoes" that wouldnt make you upset?

did Imus name a specific person or just the team of females?

No, never entered my mind at all.  I thought it was funny like all his other comments.

So if you had a daugther under the age of 18 and was called a hoe by Imus you would just laugh?
I hope you dont have kids, or ever have them.

Were any of them under 18?  I was under the impression that at this point in the year, even most college freshman would be 18.
